OK, I confess... I'm officially addicted to workout DVDs.

Since there aren't enough hours in a day for me to actually go outside to exercise, my consolation prize is to pop in a disk and work out at home, or in a hotel room, with Shaun T shouting encouragement through my computer screen.

Yes, I'm still doing Insanity. And I've actually improved a lot. I can make it through nearly all of the workouts without having to rest, and without feeling like I'm going to pass out. I have just one more rotation of the first series of workouts before moving on to set two. I'm excited about that, because the truth is, it gets a little boring doing the same routine over and over again.

To avoid monotony I picked up a copy of "Hip Hop Abs." Love it. But man! I definitely Do NOT have the moves. Sometimes I watch with my mough agape and think "HUH???" My hips, butt and shoulders don't coordinate to move like that, especially that fast. But I'm working on my form. And because it's new, it's fun. Not nearly as challenging as Insanity, so it's sort of like a day off with a just enough exercise to avoid feeling guilty.

As for my fluff, well, it's about the same. Weeks ago I broke my promise to myself about getting on the scale. Mostly because I wasn't getting anywhere, and I can tell that by how my jeans fit and (duh) looking at myself in the mirror. So what's the point of looking at the number in between my feet and feeling depressed about that???

I'm going to try to get back on board with the diet and weight loss thing next week. First of April. Always good to start at the beginning of a week, a month, a year. Ah, the circle of life...

Yeah, yeah, yeah....

I know I owe a post here...
But things have been absolutely INSANELY BUSY. I'm exhausted, worn out, running around like a chicken with its head cut off, and there just aren't enough hours in the day right now to complain too much about my FATNESS.

But I promise to take a deep breath, do a couple of sit-ups, and get back to you shortly...
